Add Some Retro Charm to Your Look With a Peplum Top! | yohana
TREND: Peplum tops
HOW TO WEAR IT: To turn heads these days, every fashionista knows you've got to have that "flare!" We're referring, of course, to the feminine silhouette from the '40s, where it's fitted throughout except for the ruffled A-line waist. The style was seen all over the spring 2012 runways, so you'll get plenty of mileage out of it. Plus, the flounce gives the illusion of an hourglass shape while hiding a multitude of sins. Celebs are popping up everywhere in peplum dresses, but we're drawn to the top versions of the must-have ladylike piece for the simple fact that you can partner it with various items to create different outfits. Just remember to pair it with something fitted and add a belt for definition. Unless you're long and lean like Jaime, we'd avoid wide-leg trousers.

As soon as Lauren Conrad debuted mutli-colored tips, stars like Glam Fairy's Briella Calafiore fell under the dip-dye spell. I swooned too. Back in high school, I was a Manic Panic addict (sorry, Mom!)! In the last four months alone, I've been a blonde, redhead and brunette. Clearly, I'm game to switch up my 'do. Luckily, I didn't have to go to Hot Topic to get Crayola-inspired strands (well, this time).
Baby on board! The effortlessly stylish way Victoria Beckham totes her Harper Seven around, you'd think a baby was the new It bag. Looks like a fourth child hasn't broken her stride considering how she strutted through LAX yesterday en route to the British Fashion Awards. Posh once declared the airport was her runway, and we have to agree with her! She looked catwalk ready, sashaying in suede Louboutin boots and placing one hand in her pocket while balancing Harper on her hip. Heaven forbid a practical stroller obscure her ensemble!
Some gals can make a dress out of anything. Selita Ebanks can make one out of a Swiffer. Rebecca Hall can make one out of a screen door. Gaga can make one out of meat, or Muppets. And this chickie, well, she's just made one out of a fringy lampshade she found down at the going-out-of-business sale at Madame Jojo's House of Pleasure. Do not fault her for this decision; we're in a recession, remember.
Both Kate Hudson and Kate Moss took to London town for the British Fashion Awards last night. The blond beauties showed off their stunning bods by sporting daring, mesh designs. Hudson donned a Stella McCartney one-shoulder, fitted frock that featured a tasteful embroidered-and-sheer side detail. She completed the look with dewy makeup and a top knot. Moss' mesh was more risqué, extending from her neck to the floor. The model teamed up the black-and-nude gown with cream pointy pumps, a winged eye and red lip. Although we applaud Moss for being different, her outfit was a total mess. No one should look like they're caught in fishnet stockings!
It's bedtime! And if you're a member of the fashion elite, that means you wiggle out of your size negative eight Versace dress and your concave bra and slip into your...red carpet pajamas? Sure. Yes. Why the heck not. Because when you're a member of a musical elite family—which this wearer is—and you're also one of the most sought-after designers in the world—which this wearer also is—it's not like anyone is going to say "girl, take that mess off" to your face. But seriously. Girl, take that mess off.
